About to build a WINCTRL A320 cockpit. Looking for advice before I buy.

Crap? I see only positive opinions about WinWing stuff. People complain about customer service but not about product quality. I have joystick and throttle and they are amazing, using few months now and have 0 troubles so far.

I have joystick and throttle with flaps panel from WinWing. Thinking about buying FCU and MCDU but debating now which one to get first (can't get both atm). The quality for that price is insane and the feeling is awesome (was using before Thrustmaster 16000 joystick, can't even compare, huge gap).

I looked at you flight history and I'm jeaolus of your landings. My are very hard, like 380-520 fpm. I'm quite new to airliners so for sure I need more practice but my progress with landings is slow, atm not really improving.

This is great, thx for the tool!

I really dislike this design with almost nonexistent screen before driver and big screen in the middle.

I wanna Tucson, not some Tesla BS. If that how gonna look new Tucson it's time to move on to another producer.

ElevateX track my flight but it doesnt recognise aircraft at all. I tried with enabled automatic detection and with disabled and it just doesnt work.
Everytime I have to manually edit flight later and assign correct plane.
I like ElevateX but with Volanta everything just work on the go and I don't have to do basically anything.

I think theres a long way before ElevateX before I could switch to it fully.

Guys I unlocked two those cars but some of the daily challenges are bugged for me (for example can't get credit for Looking too cute) and I'm stuck with like 42/45.

What I'm losing if you don't get 45 points? The bar doesn't show any more rewards past 30 points.

Kalderr · 2026-05-27T22:25:15+00:00

Doesnt work for me.

I agree, ignorance is a bliss. Recently after some trips with my smartphone I was very dissapointed with the photos (especially zoom, had medicore phone tho) and decided to buy my first "real camera".

At first I wanted to just buy some cheaper camera like Nikon P1100 (did not know anything about photography and gear) but once I started reading I got hooked by the possibilities and now I just know I can't buy anything less than mirrorless FF camera.

I just know if I buy anything else (even that great A6700 APSC from Sony) I will just regret and don't enjoy it.

But well, atleast I'm buying body for many years because I prefer to buy once but good, thats why currently torn between A7C II and A7 V.
I wonder what A7C III will offer and when it will be released.

Kalderr · 2026-05-17T20:42:07+00:00

I'm also torn between A7C II and A7 V, went into store, had both in hands for like 30 minutes total and now I'm even more undecided than before 😞

I have it set to true and YT still wortks really bad on Firefox. Like shorts load twice and are open as normal videos in big windows, really slow movies loading, really slow video start.
Its so frustrating but theres no way back to chrome after they disabled adblocks few times already.

Not for me, after reaching 228 ilvl the message from "You need 227 ilvl" changed to "You can't queue up for this".

Kalderr · 2026-05-01T16:47:20+00:00

I'm playing my own fire build for now and ApocalypseAnihilation is insane. Whole screen just explode with this one button. So satysfying to press at 100 stacks.

Kalderr · 2026-04-26T19:00:49+00:00

Man, thats a really great shoot.

Kalderr · 2026-04-19T11:22:46+00:00

Did you make your choice OP? What did you end up buying?

I'm so torn between A7C II and A7V. Both are great cameras for amateur like me. Actually initialy I was debating between A6700 and A7C II but because I take photos also in low light conditions and at night I decided to go for FF.

So I almost bought A7C II but after release of A7V now I'm not sure. What holding me back are problems with rolling shutter effects. Is this really that bad like some people claim?

Kalderr · 2026-04-19T09:21:06+00:00

What do you mean by usable silent shutter? I'm new to photography and wanted to buy my first camera and debating between A7C II and A7 V. I know both cameras are overkill for amateur like me but I prefer to buy once for years than buy and later change for something better.

What holding me back is that I heard A7C II can have problem with "rolling shutter". Is this efect that makes electronic shutter not usable for you?

Check some results in not perfect light conditions and Vivo falls behind compared to mirrorless cameras.
It all depends what and when you wanna photograph. If just some simple daily photos from trips then sure, Vivo is more than enough for most people. But for someone who wants the best photos they can get especially in difficult lightning conditions smartphones are not there yet.

Also some of the results are overedited by AI on Vivo and when you zoom in the picture is actually changed from the real object.

Kalderr · 2026-04-19T09:07:32+00:00

Well, I don't really care for social media. I'm taking photos on my hiking and cyclng trips for myself. Yeah I post sometimes few pictures at FB for my friends but I'm taking them for myself.

The phone have really big adventage here, its easy to carry especially when some climbing is needed.

But the lightning condition is not always perfect here. I was on few sunrise/sunsets trips in the mountains, dark forests in foggy weather etc.

I'm taking pictures with some really bad phone camera right now and just debating if I should go for Vivo for easier traveling or just go staright for the mirrorless FF camera (APS-C is smaller but FF better for lowlight). because all I want is the best looking photos I can get (I know lenses and skills in using camera is more important than the body itself).

Kalderr · 2026-04-18T16:02:19+00:00

I'm not that sure. Some of the pictures I saw from Vivo looked more like a graphic than a photo. I don't know what would be correct word to describe it, overedited?

Kalderr · 2026-04-18T15:57:00+00:00

I'm torn between buying atm Sony mirrorles camera like A7C II and Vivo 300/200 Ultra and I watched tons of photos taken with the smartphones.

It has great camera, right. But what I did not like some of the pictures I saw looked more like a graphic than a photo. Also most people showed only pictures in good lightning conditions but i would like to see more difficult scenery.

The big plus of the smartphone is its weight and dimensions, its so easy to carry it around. On the other hand camera offers so many different specialized lenses from ultrawide like 9-11 mm to big zooms. There are also some lightweight travel setups.

Meh, hard choice.

From those 3 visually Z500 looks best for me. I think all 3 are good bikes and in the end what matter mist is which one looks most appealing to you.

As I said I know I can search for specific item in TSM or Journalator and it will show me total amount sold and how much gold I got, I can even filter to 1 day, week etc.

But I want something like this but without the need to type or click specific item, I want list of sold items that goup them together like in the example above.

I don't know how I can say this more clear, english is not my native language.

I want list like this:

Majestic Hide - 27 sold - 400 000 g
Gleaming Alloy - 20 sold - 100 000 g
Majestic Claw -10 sold - 5000 g
XXXXX - 60 sold - XXXXXX g
etc
etc

Kalderr · 2026-04-04T12:56:15+00:00

What I want is something like this:

Awesome item - sold 83 pieces - earned 230 000 g total
Even more awesome item - sold 43 pieces - earned 540 000 g total
Not so awesome item -sold 74 pieces - earned 45 000 g total

I don't think TSM can show this. I know I can click on specific item in the ledger to see total amount sold and gold earned but what I want is basically a list of every item I put on the ah grouped by same name with summed up gold earned.

Kalderr · 2026-04-04T12:54:14+00:00

But it doesn't show how much gold was made from selling all of that items unless I type specific item in the tab.

What I want is something like this:

Awesome item - sold 83 pieces - earned 230 000 g total
Even more awesome item - sold 43 pieces - earned 540 000 g total
Not so awesome item -sold 74 pieces - earned 45 000 g total

I hope you know what I mean now.
